Technical Assistance Project in Support of the Georgian Energy Sector Reform Programme (GESRP) worth EUR 8,44 million aims to strengthen energy security, improve public and industrial energy infrastructure and promote the use of renewable energy.

Sigrid Brettel, Head of Cooperation of the EU Delegation to Georgia, hoped the project would be implemented successfully. “Energy efficiency has many benefits: environmental, social and economic. It contributes to the country’s energy security and also to sustainable development,” Brettel said.

According to Deputy Minister of Economy Davit Tvalabeishvili, the project will help Georgia meet the commitments as per the Association Agreement signed with the EU.

With a 4-year project, Georgia will be able to attract additional investments and boost the Georgian energy sector’s competitiveness.
